Thank you, for addressing my problem. Here is what I did as per your suggestion.
When I run the following command from terminal (CTRL + ALT + F1) : ps aux | grep bonobo I do not see any process with name bonobo-ativation-server. Also, when I do : killall bonobo-activation-server It gives the following output : bonobo-activation-server: no process killed I do not understand what bonobo-activation-server is, but I have read the man page. I think it is some important application :( There as no errors in ~/.xsession-errors but two warnings. I am providing the contents of ~/.xsession-errors: ------- File: ~/.xsession-errors --------- /etc/gdm/Xsession: Beginning session setup... SESSION_MANAGER=local/debian:/tmp/.ICE-unix/2902 ** (gnome-settings-daemon:2960): WARNING **: Failed to open file '/etc/gnome/config/General.ad': No such file or directory Window manager warning: Failed to read saved session file /home/manish/.metacity/sessions/default0.ms: Failed to open file '/home/manish/.metacity/sessions/default0.ms': No such file or directory --------- End File: ~/.xsession-errors ------------- As far as I believe my gnome is running since, I can see the background and I am able to run application from terminal (CTRL + ALT + F1) as : iceweasel --display=:0.0 gedit --display=:0.0 This problem is very unpredictable, today I was able to login two times in my gnome with these steps. 1. First I rebooted in single user mode. 2. After login as root, I run the "init 5" command. 3. Then, I login as normal user "manish" from graphical display. But when I rebooted in single user mode again, I was not able to login using above mentioned steps :( Also, 1) sometimes when I boot my system, I get the following error: RAMDISK: incomplete write (-28 != 32768) 8388608 crc error Kernel Panic - not syncing: VFS : Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block (0) 2) sometimes I get this error: Probing EDD (edd=off to disable) Decompressing Linux .... ok crc error Do you think I should file a seperate bug report for this error. ?? Thank you for your patience and time to read this bug report.
